New Caney ISD cancels contract for $21.4M facility

NCISD trustees opted to redo the project bidding process after a construction company from the first round of bidding sued the district, said Scott Powers, executive director of Public Relations for NCISD, via email Dec. 18. Spring-based ICI Construction Inc. filed the lawsuit in November, according to legal documents.

“The board of trustees took action to terminate the contract with Gamma, for convenience, not for cause,” Powers said.

District officials don’t expect the cost or timeline for the project to be largely impacted by the contract changes, Powers noted. The board is expected to consider project contracts in February, with construction wrapping up by February 2027.

ICI Construction officials could not be reached by press time.
